Commander-In-Chief.

Also yes. 

Don’t think $ per MPH should be linear, think exponential would be a better representation of the relationship.

Ol’ rapin Ben still deserves some of the blame. 

A 2016 B8.5 S4 seems like it would fit the bill. Fun, AWD, sleek, blends in for the most part. They can be had CPO’ed for right at $30k. I got might for under $35k out the door.

Stellaris is fantastic. Just dive in and start playing. You will end up restarting over and over. Even more so once you figure out whats a good start and what is a bad one. Plus different races play pretty differently.

Standalone. But you have to get Z51 to then equip the MagRide (FE4) option, I think it is $1900.

I want you both to know I enjoyed this exchange. Cheers! 

Some of his pre-Top Gear videos are my all time favs.

Me trying to get into the configurator. 

Under $60k. For a DCT, a NA V8, and 0-60 in under 3 secs..? That’s pretty great.

As a fellow Costco member, how was your experience with their car buying program?

I don’t think his build included an Auditory Enjoyment Module.

As a 30 year old with a B8.5 S4 I’m modding/tuning I feel personally attacked. 

In stock form, 0-60 in just under 5 seconds is quick but not mind bending quick. Its on par with some of the other suggestions.

I know he doesn’t want German. But really think he should consider a b8.5 S4.

You must not be very good at looking. In 40 seconds I just found 4 within 250 miles of me in Texas, and 9 within 500 miles.

Nope. I doubt it would be, the AMG is its direct competitor. Last one was in the high $90k- low $100k. Imagine this will be just a little more.
